Sometimes you just go with the fates and something keeps hitting you in the face over and over. Musician/cartoonist Jeffrey Lewis is the current one. I heard him live in session on the radio months ago and just got around to ordering his CD The Last Time I Did Acid I Went Insane. And very good it is too. Just before that came through I bought a copy of Sturgeon White Moss which has a great one pager by him. Then, in the CD, it says he’s on mp3.com, so go there and download his songs. I particularly recommend this track to start with. While that’s downloading, check out this comic on the Rough Trade site. Now, if I can just find a source for ordering his actual comics themselves…

About this site
In June 2000 I started blogging at peteashton.com and 10 years later in June 2010 I decided to stop. Blogging here, that is. I started a clean slate over on I Am Pete Ashton and maintain all manner of other web presences which are all listed here along with my contact details.
You probably came here via a Google search or from following a link on some old blog post somewhere. I hope what you find is useful in some way, though do check the publication date - it might be rather old now.
Thanks for your eyeballs.

Oh yeah, when you sign up to mp3.com use a hotmail style address cos they’re buggers for sending you spam…
Wow. I got a couple of compilation CDs from two different people a couple of months ago with JL songs on them, and I was meaning to look up more of his stuff. ‘Chelsea Hotel Oral Sex Song’ is brilliant.
